Award-Winning Middle School Math Tutors for Students in Providence, RI

...Sciences and Chinese from the University of Rhode Island. My favorite subjects revolve around sciences, math and foreign language. Education is a vast journey of self-discovery and talent development that bestows upon your unique skills to explore your most significant capabilities. I possess an irrefutable passion in teaching because it is monumentally rewarding to instill courage and perseverance to professionals, scholars and everyday people towards their goals. My goals are to foment the innate skills,...

...I decided to run my own tutoring services, where I helped middle schoolers with their language levels, both English and Spanish. I also tutored in the math field. When it came to Algebra, I also frequently tutored my high school friends. One efficient strategy that worked for me was having the person I tutored, tutor me back. Having them teach me how to solve a problem, or how to pronounce or say something correctly, showed...

I am a graduate from the University of Rhode Island. I received my bachelors in French, and I am finishing my sound engineering degree at another university. I have been studying French for 8 years and I fully embrace learning more and more about the language and it's culture. Outside of my studies I like to dance, write music, play basketball, and travel.

I received my M.S. in Biomedical Engineering in May 2014. I have over four years of experience tutoring undergraduate Chemistry, Biology & Mathematics. I enjoy tutoring and my students walk away confident with great understanding of the core concepts.

My love for working in education began when I started volunteering as a tutor and mentor in high school. Throughout my life, I have fueled my passion for helping students succeed through a variety of careers, including serving as an AmeriCorps member for City Year, supervising elementary tutors and mentors, and am currently working as a high school guidance counselor. I have a BA degree in Psychology from The Ohio State University and a MA...

...favorite Albert Einstein quotes: "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler." Although I have lived over nine years in "The Lone Star State," I am originally from Panama City, Panama. While living in these different countries, I have gained a great appreciation for all the different cultures of our people. I am bilingual and am currently working on my third language: Mandarin Chinese. You could say "people" are one of my...

I am a graduate of UC Berkeley where I majored in Molecular and Cell Biology, with an emphasis in Biochemistry. I am currently a graduate student at the Boston University School of Medicine, studying Biomedical Forensic Sciences. I love working with both younger and more experienced students in biology, chemistry, mathematics, and forensics. I am passionate about helping others achieve their fullest potential, and can cater to various learning styles!

Let's learn together!

...with a strong foundation in algebra, number theory, analysis, combinatorics, and proof-writing. I've worked with students of many ages in both formal and informal settings, from helping my own children work through challenging math concepts to teaching in the middle school curriculum. I am especially drawn to topics that combine logical reasoning with creativity, such as algebra and problem-solving strategies, and I enjoy helping students uncover the underlying structure of what they're learning. My teaching...

I love telling stories! Writing is my strong suit as I've spent the last 6 years writing for my university's History journal, tutoring college underclassmen in research writing, and host poetry workshops for kids to adults in a museum setting. In the day, I am a High School History teacher who is devoted to teaching students how to critically assess sources instead of just reading them. Hope I can meet you and your scholar!

...being said, I try to make learning fun and show my students that it can be a hobby. Eventually, I hope to get my students to a place where they outgrow me. Consequently, this does not sadden me--it truly warms my heart to see my students grow and prosper. Outside of the classroom, I like to play my guitar, spend time outside usually playing sports, and I would be lying if I said I haven't...

...when they ask me about maths and sciences, and now I have a bit of a reputation around my building for having strengths in those subjects. In my mind, working with a student (especially in math) can be something like a game: there's a goal, there's someone to collaborate with, there are strategies to use, and if you let yourself you can have fun doing it. The mindset of curiosity and enthusiasm that comes from...

...individual learner. This helps to identify and clarify misunderstandings in the process rather than stumbling over information. I am able to teach in English and Writing, as well as across most maths and sciences, including Organic/Inorganic Chemistry, Biology, Statistics, Algebra, and Calculus. I strongly believe in lifelong learning, and try to practice that philosophy daily. My other passion is music, as I play guitar and piano. Otherwise, I enjoy spending time with friends and simple...

...subject they need help with. My favorite subjects to tutor are Spanish, since is my native language, and Math, because I love numbers. My philosophy of teaching can be summed up in two words: have fun. Traditionally, school classes stress students with lots of threats about grades and failure. I believe that we learn best when we are relaxed, enjoying ourselves and the process of learning. When I'm not at work, I enjoy going out...

...at Yale University working towards a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics. I began tutoring in high school at local elementary schools and continued tutoring into my college career with older students. I am capable of tutoring subjects ranging from Algebra and Calculus to Economics, standardized tests, Statistics, and more. Tutoring is something I enjoy because I love helping students achieve their goals and maximize their potential through practice and hard work. I'm a firm...

...school math in Boston for three years. Most of my experience has been with Algebra 1 and Geometry, but I'm comfortable with all math content up through Calculus. Some of my most enjoyable and rewarding experiences working with students have been helping them with assignments individually during a free period or after school. I'm excited to leverage my experience in the classroom in work with even more students on a one-on-one basis. I believe that...

...program to help students to achieve their goals and earn their GED. Serving as a tutor is something I like because I get to know different people from different cultures and I get to pass on my experience to others and keep the door open to learnings. I have learned a lot from those I tutored over the years. I have also been participating in community service learning and I have received Service Learning and...

...Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology and Visual Arts, but I rather than apply to medical school straight away, I opted to take a few gap years. Currently, I am a graduate student at Columbia University in the process of completing a Master of Science in Human Nutrition, and when I return to Rhode Island this fall, I plan to work in labs conducting clinical research projects. I am excited to tutor students in biology, critique essays...

I'm a recent PhD graduate in Bioengineering in the Boston area. My thesis involved nanoparticles and bacterial infections, but as a biomedical engineer I've had training in circuits, mechanics, some programming, chemistry and biology. Tutoring for me is a collaborative effort, following a problem-based learning with questions that will lead the student towards the answer they're looking for while providing a well-rounded understanding of why and how that answer works.

...College, and I want to use the knowledge I gained from my experience to help students learn and grow. I tutor algebra, calculus, statistics and geometry, among other math related subjects. In my experience, the most effective way to approach tutoring is with patience. I think school curricula can put a lot of pressure on students to absorb new information very quickly. This pressure can be counterproductive, and I prefer to emphasize setting a pace...
